BO and his crew are starting to look a little ragged. BO goes on all the comedy shows trying to connect with the young crowd. I say connect and not reconnect because he never really connected. The truth is that many young people voted for him because they were told it was cool to do so. They actually believed some of the BS BO’s propaganda machine (The MMM (Malignant Mendacious Media) was spouting. Now many of them are finding that ‘Hope and Change’ was no more than a campaign slogan. ‘Yes We Can’ turned out to be ‘No You Can’t’. When he was in the Senate he and his majority passed the bill that would double the interest on some student loans while the Republicans were against it. Now that it’s about to happen, guess who is trying to blame the GOP!

Half of the college graduates are finding that they can’t get jobs that require that sought-after degree. Worse yet is the fact that many of these people who were encouraged by their teachers and professors to get degrees in the humanities or (pick your victim group) Sudies will never find a job outside of academia. Of course these degrees are mostly useful for lighting small bon-fires or cleaning dog feces from your shoe sole. Engineering and science degrees are in demand by employers because the people who earn these degrees can actually do something useful!

BO is also losing some of the coveted independents as well. All of the, “I won’t be president of blue states or red states, but the president of the United States.” is a little laughable when you and your employees spend most of their time smearing, demeaning and insulting large swaths of the American populace. Some of them actually work for the industries you are trying to crush. It also seems those independents don’t like being called dull.

Even some of the Obama-zombies are leaving the reservation. They see that most of the promises that BO made were only made to fool them and get their vote. A lot of them are discovering that it isn’t really possible to provide more healthcare to more people AND hire 16,000 IRS agents and create countless departments and lower the cost. As a matter of fact they are finding out that it will be just the opposite. It will cost more, less people will be covered, the cost will rise, there will be larger and larger government agencies and old people actually will be pushed over the cliff. It won’t be Paul Ryan pushing them it will be Cathy Supercilious.

He is losing some of his union support because it is difficult to curry favor with them while killing thousands of union jobs to satisfy the environmentalists. People realize that you do need nuclear plants, coal and oil until you can produce other forms of energy efficiently and economically.

Last but not least, even some of the MMM are running stories that are less than glowing about BO. Rush Limbaugh calls them random acts of journalism. Okay, it isn’t going to happen at msnBSc or even nBSc but there are little blips. The AP releases a critical story and the French news agency, AFP, is so shocked they try to pin it on Fox News. (Because they reported on the AP story that the MMM ignored.) Most of the MMM actually reported on BO’s slams of the Supreme Court because they realize that if he can intimidate them he can intimidate anyone.

Some say that the lies are catching up with him. When you lie this much, I’m surprised it took so long. When the minions leave, all who will be left are the rats.

I have some friends that are avowed leftists. We all have our own opinions and rightly so. What bothers me is that they can’t discuss their positions rationally. They either go to the talking points. “Republicans want dirty air and water. They want to kill grandma, they are bigot, homophobe, racists.” The other thing they routinely go to is name calling or derision, “You are an idiot, you don’t know what you are talking about.” and so on. I tried to have a conversation with one last week and when we were done, he said to me, “I’ll have to come back with better facts.” To which I replied, “If you come back with facts then you’ll be on my side.”

If you look back at my rants you will see that I try to back up what I write with references. The reason is simple, I don’t want someone to steer me wrong and make me look like a bufoon as many on the left so often do. Once in a while I repeat something I believe to be true that turns out not to be. When it happens I do my best to correct it. The leftist doesn’t do that. Instead, they quote some tripe that Media Matters or MoveOn.org puts out and they believe it. A good example is the whole “climate change” scam. After the emails between the conspirators came out more and more scientists are denouncing the concepts of catastrophic warming and that humans could have an effect on what warming there is.

Another example is the left’s cry that Bush caused the economic problems. First let me admit that he didn’t do enough to stop them. If you look at the chart on the main page of my rant you will see the CBO’s own numbers on government spending from 2008 with projections through 2019. This is followed by a chart showing federal spending from 2000 and projects through 2016. Notice that the greatest increases of spending come when the Democrats took over Congress and continue into BO’s regime.

Wanna talk about energy? BO stopped drilling offshore. He says that we are drilling more than ever. Gotta call semi BS on that one. Any increases in drilling are on private land, although they are trying through regulation to halt it, while permits and leases on Federal land are down about 40%. We have not built a refinery or nuclear power plant in half the population’s lifetime!

Anyway, go back over my rants and you can see some of the things the left is doing to our country. Do the research and become informed and you might just change your mind. (I mean that for my leftist friends!)

A Preacher was explaining that he must move on to a larger congregation that will pay him more. There is a hush within the congregation.

No one wanted him to leave.Joe Smith, who owns several car dealerships in the city stands up and proclaims, .. ‘If the Preacher stays, I will provide him with a new Cadillac every year and his wife with a Honda mini-van to transport their children!’The congregation sighs in relief and applauds…Sam Brown, a successful entrepreneur and investor, stands and says, ‘If the Preacher will stay on here, I’ll personally double his salary, and also establish a foundation to guarantee the college education of all his children!’More sighs and loud applause…..Sadie Jones, age 88, stands and announces with a smile, ‘If the Preacher stays, …. I will give him sex!’There is total silence.The Preacher, blushing, asks her, ‘Mrs. Jones, whatever possessed you to say that?’Sadie’s 90 year old husband Jake is now trying to hide, holding his forehead with the palm of his hand, and shaking his head from side to side, while his wife replies, ‘Well, I just asked my husband how we could help and he said,……’Screw him!’Isn’t senility great ?
